STRONG WOMEN STrong bones
(a)
|
This class is
specifically designed to strengthen muscles around the joints most likely to
suffer in the aging process. People at risk of Osteoporosis are invited to
participate as the research behind this program has proven results.
Increasing reps and sets gradually, and increasing weights as appropriate,
will build not only strength but confidence and posture. Community develops
as students come to know one another and see growth and change happening
over time. Wear comfortable clothing. Bring a mat and your weights (if you
are currently using them), plenty of drinking water and the willingness to
succeed. The recommended reading material is Strong Women Strong Bones, by
Dr. Miriam Nelson of the Gerald J. and Dorothy Friedman School of Nutrition
Science and Policy at Tufts University. |
